These stress hormones can also lead to headaches, high
blood pressure and digestive disorders (like IBS).

They also affect your gut flora, and that’s where 80% of
your immune system is.

For example, strains of the harmful bacteria E. coli grow
faster in an environment that contains the stress hormones
epinephrine (adrenaline) or norepinephrine (noradrenaline).

In addition, some scientists believe that when we’re
stressed, our nervous system “talks” to our gut microbes,
telling certain (bad) ones to multiply and other (good)
ones to limit their growth.

Having a greater concentration of harmful bacteria in your
intestines makes you more susceptible to bacterial
infections and viruses of all types. This happens for two
reasons:

1- You now don’t have enough good bacteria to fight off
the dangerous pathogens you ingest
2- The bad bacteria have eaten away at your gut wall and
made it porous, so dangerous toxins can now seep out and
travel all through your body, making you ill

Plus having more harmful bacteria in the gut also affects
your immune system’s regulatory T cells. That means your
immune system will be less effective, leading to increased
inflammation (and pain) all over your body.

And heaven help you if you do get sick and take
antibiotics. While they will certainly help kill your
infection, they’ll also cause the bacterial balance in your
gut to even further out of whack…

…which means that you’re likely to get sick AGAIN very
soon.

It’s essential to keep your gut flora balanced all year
long, but especially around the holidays with all the added
stressors in your days.

These good guys line the walls of your intestines like an
army, ready to fight off dangerous invaders. Plus they
compete with the bad bacteria for “territory” on your gut
wall, crowding the bad guys and starving them.

They also help strengthen the gut wall, so toxins are less
likely to leak out and cause illness.

Plus Super Shield helps make your digestion more
efficient…which can be helpful when you’re indulging in
your favorite holiday meal.
